This book takes political poetry in a new direction, where the voices of the colonized and their colonizers form a dissonant choir bearing testimony to the centuries of violence that have shaped Latin America. Inspired by Martinican intellectual Frantz Fanon, the book examines issues of race, colonialism, and revolution through a poetic discourse that only seems to find solace in irony. Huen\u00fan, a renowned Chilean-Mapuche poet, draws parallels between the alienation of South American indigenous peoples and the experiences Fanon documented in the Caribbean and Algeria, breaching national and linguistic barriers that often work to isolate the \u201cwretched of the earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lavenderink.org\/site\/shop\/fanon-city-meu\/\"><em>Fanon City Meu<\/em><\/a> is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lavenderink.org\/site\/books\/jaime-luis-huenun\/\">Huen\u00fan<\/a>\u2019s second full-length collection of poetry to be translated into English, following <em>Port Trakl<\/em> in 2008.
